Playable Table
Humans are not the only ones pushed into function; tables would be the same. If we try to remove the frame just a bit, slippage may occur. The table becomes the world, the empty theory becomes concrete, and the useful becomes useless. The gaps and cracks gradually widen, and the space we think of as in our minds and hearts is no different from the real world. If this table could be the beginning of such displacements and cracks, please use it as a table to play with.
